Cheese Curds, 4/3: What is the Packers’ plan for the running back rotation?

The Green Bay Packers rotated through a trio of productive running backs in 2017 thanks to a variety of injuries, and they appear to have hit well on two of their rookie draft picks last season. Early in the season, third-year pro Ty Montgomery was a workhorse, rarely leaving the field until he was injured a few weeks in. 5th-round pick Aaron Jones ran away with the job for a few weeks, showing excellent speed and vision until being sidelined by an injury of his own. Then Jamaal Williams took over as a workhorse back, averaging 18 carries per game over the final eight contests.
